OBJECT to the height, scale and percedent.

This area is of unique architectural significance. Many of the iconic terraces in Paddington and Woollahra are labelled heritage-listed only via local council and are therefore already subject to demolition via the small to medium density housing plan by the NSW State Government. As a resident, I am appalled that the amenity of the local area is vulnerable to erosion as a result of such creeping powers by State Government but, aside from the "NIMBYs" as Premier Chris Minns has thoughtlessly labelled concerned and impacted residents, many non-residents from other areas of Sydney that I've spoken with are outraged to hear that the iconic Paddington rows of terraces - both residential and shops - are under threat. This proposed building is totally out of character for the local area. While many of us agree that housing must be increased, the housing benefits of this proposal (both number of apartments as well as the lack of affordable housing which it intends to replace) do not solve the housing issue or justify the erosion of the local amenity. This proposal is short-sighted and will only serve to negatively impact nearby residents and business-owners who have carefully selected Paddington and Woollahra for its local amenity and draws visitors from all over for the same reason. We can do better to improve housing without so sloppily imposing on existing communities.
